At the time I was researching similar subject the way I've found is could be
done was:

- deploy OID + Single Sign On (expect to pay $$$ for license because you'll
be slapped with Advance Security Option cost for each database you have to
configure with OID)
- deploy provisioning from corporate LDAP to OID. There are bunch of
adapters to do that. I didn't finish this completely because of lost
interest due to budgeting constraints

Unfortunately Oracle has no interest to support 3rd party LDAP servers out
of the box for user authentication....
